game sucks but i like to pretend i like it to show that i didnt just play automata for 2b

>>724508528
I'd be ok with a remake that made the combat better
>>
>>724508528
Awful gameplay, surprisingly a couple of decent boss fights, awesome story with some really kino scenes.
>>
>>724508528
The apocalypse could of literally been prevented by Caim staying cool and implying that he was maybe okay with the incest.
>>
>>724508528
Nonsensical story people only claim is good because the tone and direction of the plot fits the masochist fetish and worldview being raised in christian nations has given them.
>>
>>724508528
Bad game with an interesting world. Needs more scenes of Caim pounding Angelus dragonussy.

Very interesting game that would either be massively improved or completely butchered by a remake, every single gameplay mechanic could be done so much better by just about any studio but there's almost no way any of those studios would keep the baby cannibal elf, the pedophile monk, the incestuous sister, the turbo racist bishop or the child soldier slaughtering much less increase the emphasis on them which would also be an improvement.

>the world ends because a man goes "no way fag" to his crazy brocon sister

That's my new "describe a games plot as poorly as possible"
>>
How would you improve the gameplay if you were in charge of a remake?
>>
>>724509779
The pedo bishop doesn't even make it into the English release. Several segments are cut and lines are heavily rewritten to bury the idea because, well- it's an abomination that one of the only good people in the story is a pedo.
>>
I want to play it for the story but the gameplay is close to unbearable.

>>724508528
I love how DoD filters nufags.
It's also hilarious that zoombies cannot believe that some of us beat this on our own as a child.

Terrible gameplay, but everything else is literally perfect. Probably the best example of games as "art". It's not fun to play, but it's sure as hell an experience you won't ever forget.

The art direction of the CGI cutscenes and music could easily be butchered in a remake.

I absolutely loved this game when I was in 7th grade and 100% completed it that summer. Replayed it around the time Automata came out, and found the gameplay pretty repetitive and boring. Definitely was a novel idea for it's time, though.
The story is still the most batshit insane plot I've ever experienced in a video game, and the game holds up well enough to make playing through the story worth it. Cannibal bitch was best girl.

>>724509779
>>724510247
If they remake it, I want them to include all the content that got cut for NA. I know it would never happen, but Taro's a mad man; so, I can hold out hope. I'd take a remaster or port of what we already got, though.

I could've ended up a diehard Yoko Taro fan because he let me ride a dragon in this game. But then I stumbled upon Devil May Cry 3.
Watching Dante surfing on a demon to rock music was way cooler than a dragon.

I played this game so that I can play nier: automata. Only to find out that I despise playing as women in games whilst playing drakengard 3 and never did it again. It just feels gross.

Unlocking everything was soooo tedious. I liked the last ending you unlock. Really cool and satisfies my thirst for urban fantasy.

This game is only known in the west thanks to thedarkid's early LPs. He turned out to be an absolutely insane man with a discord cult who claims he has shootouts with Russian assassins on the regular and met his wife (Heinrich Himmler's granddaughter, btw) when he was on a covert op and wooed her talking about the glownigger wage gap. When all his lies started to unravel, he claimed he was dying of cancer with only a week to live, but if you see him online, it's because he bequeathed his accounts to his Japanese step-daughter he adopted from the Yakuza.

I really liked doing the cool big move combos and killing tons of enemies and pausing the game to admire the frozen effects and animations and blood flying everywhere. im pretty cool
>>
>>724514245
it's the world's shittiest musou, you literally just run to each enemy and spam square with maybe some minor side objective to unlock a weapon. the environments are bland and empty, the game chugs on original hardware, the music is awful, it's piss easy besides a few bosses which are practically all backended at the end of the game. terrible game honestly

It physically hurts to play after a while, your thumb starts to strain, it’s just seemingly endless hordes of cannon fodder, sometimes fantasy creatures, sometimes children, it’s repetitive as fuck, the music is claustrophobic with its mechanical pulsating repetitive classical/industrial sound. All this is mentally draining after a while, but then it puts you in a trance and you then forget how long you’ve been playing it for because you’re just mindlessly hacking away at anything that moves. Then the story gets more schizo and you start to lose track, and each ending more miserable and surreal until the final one, in which you have to pretty much complete everything, and then you get the final ending, you hear a sound in modern day Tokyo tinged with a greyscale hue, and then your greeted the most fucking annoying boss ever, and then you’re finally happy it’s over. Until you get blown up by fighter jets but whatever. Anyway I was happy to be done with it and I really fucking hated it
Maybe one of my favourite games out there.

It really is something, especially how even after beating one of those grueling stages, your guys still "lose" anyway and everything continues getting worse and more senseless.

It's my favorite track in the game and the added context that the inhabitants of Tokyo could actually hear the bells earsplittingly loudly inside their heads makes it so much better

Honestly, this game has been a major influence on me and my late adolescence after discovering it a decade ago in 2015. I was intrigued and gripped by its dark, moody story and how often it took risks that no other company dared to reach speaks volumes about its cult status today. Especially since it came out 2 years after 9/11 in Japan.

But I find what intrigues me the most about this game are two things. One, its aesthetic. Two, the non-conventional soundtrack.

In spite of it being a medieval game, a lot of the parts that stand out in the character models look a lot more sleeker than when compared to other Japanese-made medieval contemporaries in which they look like they could've come out of a sci-fi/fantasy infusion and could've well fit into there.

Just look at the armbands and pieces and character designs for Caim and Leonard. Even if they're fantasy-esque, they look almost akin to modern-era clothing.

The music, even when it's a butchering of classical compositions, also has that urbanesque early 00s sound (kind of a darker Aphex Twin but butchered and looped in between). The spectrum between classical-influenced and urban-influenced shows between pieces like Chapter 2 Sky and Chapter 7 Sky/Vs. Inuart. One moment, it sounds like a symphony from Dvorak. The next it sounds like an ambient nightmare.

I could go on but I will wrap this up by saying that I don't think there's a video game writer that's as introspective and sadomasochistic as Yoko Taro. Apart from Yoshiyuki Tomino of Gundam or early Nasuverse with Mahoyo/Tsukihime. Or Innocent Grey with Kara No Shoujo and Cartagra. But these are all outliers in their own fields in anime and VN respectively.

The only games that use that cowboy/vaquero samurai combo are Rising Zan, Sakura Taisen 5 and Metal Gear Revengance.

The fact that the games industry hasn't made this into a proper genre or at least series is just one of the many reasons modern gaming is so lame.
